A truck cap, also known as a camper shell or truck topper, is a closed enclosure that fits over the bed of a pickup truck. Its price is influenced by various factors, including material (fiberglass, aluminum, composite), features (windows, locks, interior lighting), brand, and installation. For example, a basic aluminum cap will typically be less expensive than a high-end fiberglass model with advanced features.
Protecting cargo from weather and theft is a primary advantage of owning this type of truck accessory. They also increase the vehicle’s versatility, providing secure storage for tools, equipment, or even camping gear. Over time, these enclosures have evolved from simple utilitarian covers to sophisticated, customizable units that enhance both functionality and aesthetics.
